The watertightness of the swimming cap varies according to the model: The mesh cap is not at all watertight and lets the water in. The silicone mesh cap is made of watertight pieces, but the water passes through the seams, offering better protection against splashing water. The material of the silicone cap offers the best watertightness. PLEASE NOTE: NO SWIMMING CAPS ARE 100% WATERTIGHT. THE WATER FLOWS UNDER THE CAP, ESPECIALLY AROUND THE EARS.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT CAP

MESH CAP: Easy to put on, comfortable, not too tight, ideal for beginners, practical for use in spas. Suitable for aquagym, because it produces less heat. SILICONE MESH CAP: Easy to put on and comfortable with tighter support. Ideal for experienced swimmers. SILICONE CAP: Better support, better glide. Ideal for expert swimmers, for practice and competitions. Caution: as a consequence, it is not so easy to put on.

FITTING

Highly extensible and stretch-resistant silicone swim cap, but that does not withstand the slightest snag. Therefore, it is advisable to take great care with fingernails and hairclips when putting on the cap.

The quality is good but somehow water gets in the cap and hair gets wet.

Response of the brand

Hello Naman,

Thank you for rating the silicone swim cap- black. Your feedback is important for us to improve our products year after year.

I apologize for the bad experience that you have faced with your swim cap. Ideally, a silicone cap is preferred by those swimmers who want to have traction and speed in water and do not want the hair to fall on their faces. Yes, it is always good to try the product before purchasing to ensure that you are comfortable with the look and feel of the product.

Nevertheless, I invite you to any of our Decathlon stores across India to have the swim cap exchanged for a product that best suits your requirement. Our sales advisers will be happy to help you with the same. I stay available in case you have any further issues. Have a good day!
